NAACP Criminal Justice Department is hosting a Twitter Town Hall with NAACP President/CEO Cornell William Brooks, Nov. 6 1pm EST, releasing a new #BanTheBox campaign video. We want to help build awareness of the policies, inform those with criminal records about successful re-entry and offer solutions for those seeking employment with a criminal record.
